A fairly pure example of how I am using "mimetic" would be the painter
Lucien Freud.
"Depictional" would mean everything that depends on recognizable
imagery: gothic mosaics, Renaissance scenes, Disney cartoons,... and
Lucien Freud.
But what about Analytic Cubism? Well maybe, but in that case the
discussion would push precisely the limit of what I commonly mean when I
use either word.

"record their world" That starts to get at it, doesn't it? Precisely
what "world" is Rene depicting?
